Itinerary

  • Your adventure commences at the Acropolis, Athens’ eternal beacon. Here, the stories of gods and heroes resonate among the ruins. The Parthenon, a marvel of Doric elegance, stands as a tribute to Athena, offering panoramic views that stretch out over the city.
  • The Areopagus, a stone’s throw from the Acropolis, is where history’s voices still linger in the air. It was here that Saul the Tarsus, known as Paul the Apostle, delivered his timeless message to the Athenians.
  • Journey next to the southernmost tip of Attica, where the Temple of Poseidon stands guard over the Aegean. This is Cape Sounion, a place of raw beauty, where the legend of Aegeus unfolds with the setting sun as a backdrop.
  • The saga continues at Marathon Bay, the site of an ancient battle that defined the spirit of Greece. It was from here that the messenger Phidippides ran to Athens with news of victory, giving rise to the marathon race. The hallowed grounds of Marathon whisper tales of valor that shaped Western civilization.

As the sun dips below the horizon, your journey circles back to Athens. This expedition through time and myth leaves you with a profound sense of connection to the land and its legends. A narrative that has been shared through the ages and now includes your chapter.
